Sony's HVL-LBPB precedes the HVL-LBPA and is a fully adjustable LED light capable of high intensity spot-lighting (1800lx@1m) or uniform flood-lighting (600lx@1m) making it ideal for interviews or wide-angle shots. An attached diffuser makes it possible to soften shadows and reduce contrast as required.

The LBPB is powered by existing NP-F series batteries and due to it's low power consumption of 16w it can be operated for approximately 3 hours* making it a cost-effective lighting solution. When used in conjunction with a shoulder mount camcorder it is possible to use the supplied 12V DC adapter as an alternative power source.
